Ripple CTO Emeritus Says XRP Shirt Marks 100 TPS Milestone

David Schwartz, Ripple CTO Emeritus and one of the original architects of the XRP Ledger, clarified that a T-shirt he wore at the Swell event commemorated the network reaching 100 transactions per second (TPS), not a price target for XRP. Schwartz was photographed wearing a shirt featuring a ‘speedometer’-like inscription pointing to 100. The image sparked questions within the XRP community about the specific milestone the number represented. X user @unknowDLT asked Schwartz to explain the origin of the garment, noting that the design had become a point of curiosity among investors and developers.
